We provide a tailored and balanced approach to each individual client’s needs in order to avoid unnecessary time and money developing new products.

We are invested in the success of a diverse group of clients, ranging from high-tech start-ups to some of the largest companies in the world. Many of these clients are industry leaders who entrust us with their patent opinion work, knowing that our focused approach supports their efforts to bring new products to market with minimal risk of infringement.
